Using Lover
Lover is a command-line interface, which means it doesn't have a graphical interface and requires you to use the terminal.
Commands that will only work inside a Lover project.
You need to run your terminal (or enter the directory with cd) in your project's directory.
See setting up a project.
lover run
You can also pass arguments for your game if it uses them.
lover run idk --do-stuff

For example:
lover build love
lover build linux win64 win32
